US Men's National Team Soccer Thread! (lower division thread)

made sure i didn't post in here with any emotions about our absolutely crap opponent Jamaica. Zusi is a straight up game changer will be a superstar moving forward. We have some real talent that are real close to being some dangerous players. KC was rocking as usual. I think it is time we designate 3-4 home stadiums and they are exclusively used for every non-friendly games.

Your strong feelings of the Reggae Boyz is very weird to me. They suck, they aren't dirtier than anyone else in CONCACAF, what gives?


Any of you dudes have any Los Gringos gear? I see people wearing the scarves and shirts and it pisses me off, maybe dumbasses don't know what gringos means?

I think it has to relate to his childhood and Cool Runnings in some way. Not sure in exactly what way yet tho.

The Ninjas brought home the gold in their tournament this weekend. Outscored the 4 opponents 27-7. My son scored 6 goals and pretty much ate soup all over everyone's faces. AMERICA!

His best play was a left footed cross through the box to a crashing teammate who made the easy score. He was really proud of that one.

My hope is that KSU starts a men's soccer program in the next 7 years and then my son can play there and rewrite the record books!

You guys would like him, because he cares about winning A LOT!

are you sure you didnt bench him for the selfish soup eating he did after goals?

it stems from my lone trip down to that horrible island country. 


And I agree, not a fan of the Gringo gear at all....

you mean you are pissed off when a white person wears an article of clothing that says "gringo" on it? like, "how dare you not be offended at that slang term for English-speaking white person, you English-speaking white person!" ? what am i missing here MIR? are you talking about something else entirely?

i wish we would've lost.  do not like mexico at all.

i enjoy being able to hold this over them. plus, according to beckerman, the panamanian players were asking us to take it easy after they went up. it's like, "hey losers, you gotta play hard to get to brazil love it or leave it USA"

[Spaces]

big boy country teams asking us to "take it easy" on them 

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

wish we wouldnt have scored 

[scottwildcat]

Wow...wish we wouldn't of scored until I read they asked us to take it easy on them...eff that glad we knocked them out.

Have you not seen the gear referring to our national team as Los Gringos? I'm sure my post was clear. It isn't 1944, seems weird to call our team The White Boys when like half of the team aren't white boys. Los Gringos might be a good nickname for an intramural team at the University of Idaho.

we can still pull for the Fightin' Peter Jacksons!

Oh ok I see what you mean now. I realize that I included the "white" part, but I feel like gringo applies to any English-speaking person.
You are angry because gringos does not include the non-Caucasian contingent on the team. I did not consider that part.

although, why anybody is butt hurt about Mexico is stupid. TeamCountryContinent friends! 

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

ya, i guess.

if i understand this correctly, they will be seeded in brazil based on their rank in qualifying. so like, theyll be in a really tough pool for the WC, right? they make the WC but will get destroyed in a "group of death" most likely.

American Soccer Fan has the weirdest complex about mexico.  not very becoming IYAM

[MakeItRain]

I found it strange that the staff didn't allow our players to shake hands with the Panamanians at the end of the match, like they expected a riot or something. I really like Panama's coach, he's really done a great job, I hope they qualify for 2018. Also a good time for me to mention that I love that CONCACAF has essentially made Courtney Campbell our designated official, he is very very good.

TSC doesn't apply in this case at all. We gain nothing at all from Mexico qualifying or being good at soccer. They are a rival, its okay to wish ill on your rival, they certainly wouldn't be TSCing us if we were in the same position.

I'm guessing anyone who has seen a USA/Mexico match in person outside of Columbus wishes nothing but the worst for Meh-he-co.

ok, i just watched the highlights, and, man. not having anything at all to do with Mexico, i kind of wish we hadn't won that match

It was really sad, they've never qualified for a world cup, it would have been a great story, instead we have same old same old Mexico. I want new blood in Brazil, I for one will be cheering for countries like New Zealand, Iceland, and Romana in their playoff ties.
